A stunning no-bake dessert featuring store-bought strawberry Swiss roll slices, fresh strawberries, and light Chantilly cream. Perfect for impressing guests with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • About 10 slices strawberry-flavored Swiss roll cake
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 2 cups heavy cream (480 ml), cold
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (30 g)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry jam (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon gelatin dissolved in 1 tablespoon warm water (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line an 8-inch springform pan with plastic wrap, leaving enough overhang to cover the top later. Slice the Swiss roll cake into even 1/2-inch thick slices.
  2. Press the Swiss roll slices vertically around the inside edge of the pan, spiral side facing out. Cover the base with slices laid flat, cutting as needed to fit.
  3. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract and powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Fold in lemon zest if using. Lightly swirl in strawberry jam if desired.
  4. Gently fold the sliced fresh strawberries into the Chantilly cream, keeping them visible.
  5. Spoon the strawberry Chantilly cream mixture into the lined pan, smoothing the top. Cover with the plastic wrap overhang and press gently to remove air pockets.
  6. Refrigerate the assembled Charlotte Royale for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let it set.
  7. Run a thin knife around the edges to loosen the cake, release the springform pan, and peel off the plastic wrap. Slice with a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean cuts. Serve as is or with extra fresh strawberries and powdered sugar.

Notes

Use a fresh, soft Swiss roll cake for best results. Chill all equipment and ingredients for easier whipping. Do not overwhip the cream to avoid graininess. Pat strawberries dry to prevent watery cream. Use plastic wrap to line the pan for easy unmolding. For extra stability, dissolve gelatin in warm water and fold into the cream. Slice with a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean cuts.
